"imo the 700.000.000 number to me indicates that there has been an enormous deal of illegal naked shorting."

Does anyone remember July 15th, 2021? That day was very odd as the meme crowd seemed to jump on VERB for about a week like they had done shortly before with GME. The SP only went up by $0.73 from the previous trading day to close at a mere $3.20. There were about 6 days above 25,000,000 shares/day traded with a peak of 271,406,000 on July 15th, 2021. What do you think kept the SP from going ballistic? Who would have lost big $ if it did? Even Tincan, bad beer, and the other false prophetic disbarred brokers from that other site had no clue what was going on and why so many shares were traded with very little uptick in SP. It may be because they don't believe in naked shorts, because according to them they don't exist. Boat load of clueless wannabe financial advisors over there constantly trying to give us honest investors some bad advice.
